The patient may repeat the pro-cedure two or three times daily. This, together with the kero-line-ichthyol or the menthol spray, proves very grateful to mostpatients. Aristol (iodide of thymol) often acts promptly indestroying the odor as well as in healing erosions. It maybe insufflated pure, or applied (Lowenstein) as a collodion,—1part of the iodide to 10 of flexible collodion. A spray of per-oxide of hydrogen (15-volume) is a favorite with many. Lightseari
